He ruins everything.

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

The saturation coverage of a couple and their children moving home is getting a bit tedious.

REMEMBER: They all knew.

Jeffrey Sachs: "The U.S. is the most 'lawless' country in the world."

Keir Starmer will be remembered as a good man and a good Prime Minister who was very poorly treated by the party he saved. A sad day. #PMQs

Mark Rutte tying himself in knots trying to appease Donald Trump is one the nauseating things I've ever had the misfortune to watch. #Nato

Al Carns' resignation speech was exceptional. An outstanding politician with a vision for the country and for Labour.

Not impressed by the CEO of the Molly Rose Foundation. A better approach might have been to welcome the ban on social media for under-16s whilst calling for additional action on algorithms etc. His stance looks more like a politically motivated personal attack on Starmer than meaningful critique.

As the Far Right works itself into a frenzy over the death of Henry Nowak at the hands of a brown English man, the death of Saudi student Mohammed Algasim, stabbed in the neck and killed by a white English man passes largely unnoticed www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The Art of the Deal

Perfect campaign ad for the upcoming Midterms. 👌

@news.sky.com The best thing that Starmer could do for the country is nothing. He has a mandate, non of the others do and non of the potential alternatives are likely to win a general election - they all need to calm down.

Last Thursday millions of ex Conservative and Labour voters in the UK betrayed centuries of political history and tradition to vote for a party that selected this as a councillor. Shameful. metro.co.uk/2026/05/09/r...

Anyone still questioning why Farage's Reform did so well? The majority of the British public have no idea how politics work in this country, they listen to our press and its lies and believe every word. If there is to be real change we have to take on our media.

A courageous speech from King Charles. Much of its meaning was implied, but he stood up in Congress and talked about checks and balances, the rule of law, climate change, NATO, Europe, free trade, religious tolerance - all in a place where all of these issues are contested and even divisive.

This wonderful, incredibly smart woman. 🏆❤️

The dumbest headline I’ve seen this year

Current status of the Strait of Hormuz dispute

Comparing Easter messages

Everything you need to know about the rage inducing impact of Brexit in a single thread. It's a mad mad world.

My Favorite sign of all time at a No Kings Protest. So F--king True!

Trump is definitely going to hell and so are most of his supporters.

Trump and Netanyahu aren't securing peace for 50 years, they are creating a world in which the grandchildren and great grandchildren of the people they are killing today will still be seeking revenge. There is no guarantee of peace and security through violence.

More evidence that Reform see the world through racist stereotypes.

The President of the United States and the dumbest motherfucker on Earth should be two different people.

@news.sky.com Simon Mc Donald inhabits a world of deference toward the USA that is no longer in the UK's interests.

Given that Trump has obviously had no talks at all with Iran - could world's media organisations please stop reporting his claims as facts - he's making it up in order to manipulate the markets.

Trump obviously had to call Putin in order to get more instructions.

Robert Jenrick on @news.sky.com pretending that Reform didn't want the UK to get involved in attacking Iran, just shows what kind of relationship they have with the truth.

When Brexit was slammed for being an act of pure prejudice, all the Brexiters howled about ‘sovereignty’ and ‘taking back control’. Now, the very same people howl that we should just obey Trump and put our country in the firing line. They lied about everything. All of it. Every single part.

The King is supposed to be visiting the USA *next month*. This is the definition of a diplomatic nightmare. In all seriousness, I would urge him to pull a sickie.

Didn't Bush declare the Iraq war won and didn't they do the same with Afghanistan.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has hit out at reports that commanders and church leaders are telling people that the war with Iran is god’s work.

Beautiful from Private Eye on the massive toddler-tantrum that Matt Goodwin and Reform are having, because they got whooped in Gorton and Denton.

Pretty sure they brought in the wrong First Lady to testify...🤔😏

Most of Epstein's crimes took place in the US - it really is time that the US Department of Justice started arresting people.

In Amsterdam, Ukrainian servicemen undergoing rehabilitation in the Netherlands took part in a march carrying banners reading "This is who we protect."

Europe won 81 gold medals at the Olympics, the US won 12 and Norway one of Europe's smallest countries won 18. If winter sports are your measure of a country's greatness Kash then Norway definitely wins. They also have free healthcare, an outstanding education system and so much more.

There are times when listening to Barack Obama is like drinking hope. Thank you @briantylercohen.bsky.social - www.youtube.com/watch?v=uI-h...

The stark contrast is set to raise a simple but incendiary question: who is truly paying for Britain? Racist POS Ratcliffe, or people coming here from all over the world helping to build Britain? #UKNews
